I am currently working on a lovely round Beds/Cluny mat designed by Margaret Tite. It is great to work on, hard enough to keep you thinking but not too testing that you can't be bothered in this heat. I am half way round so starting to think about the next project. It is my parents 50th Wedding an

I have to confess that I've done very little BL all summer! Nothing of any consequence since finishing Lucy's wedding garter, though I've been thinking about my Lace Guild luggage tag, and yesterday I got the bobbins out to make a short length of torchon edging to put on a friend's 40th weddin

I'm usually a lurker, primarily because I'm usually so far behind on messages I've no idea what's current. Oh yeah, and I'm not a bobbin lacer. But I will chime in on 'what I'm working on' which is the Daffodil Tea Cloth from Marianne Kinzel's Second Book of Modern Lace Knitting. I'm only on ro

Having finished the extension to my 22 inch round pillow, which works very well (and having dropped it end-on on my foot), I'm now going back to the Intermediate Torchon Assessment for the UK Lace Guild that I started last year.

My very long term project is a quilting pattern from the 1930's of Ann Orr's - a basket of flowers - which I'm working in Honiton lace - I found a while back that the old quilting patterns that were produced as prick & pounce iron-on patterns have the dot spacings exactly right for Honiton. I have

Hi Bev and all other busy spiders, I'm back at the pillow and have started making the logarithmic lace I was asking about. For this project, I had to clear a lot of bobbins, so in order not to waste too much thread , at least, I managed to finish some old projects. It was a good idea to get ri
